As near as I can tell from reviewing the user-mode-linux documentation,
this is a requirement of user-mode-linux and is where it puts all of its
other kernel modules (at least for the way that UML was implemented in
Debian). From its README.Debian:
Kernel modules
--------------
Modules are installed in /usr/lib/uml/modules/<version>. The easiest
way to get to them from within UML is to use hostfs, e.g.:
mount -t hostfs -o /usr/lib/uml/modules hostfs /lib/modules
or:
echo "hostfs /lib/modules hostfs /usr/lib/uml/modules 0 0" >> /etc/fstab
or copy them into your root filesystem (rootstrap can do this
automatically).
Unfortunately, I haven't yet found other module source packages that
support UML to see how other module packages handle it. A mini-policy for
how to handle UML would be *really* helpful for this.
